Microbiota-Based Interventions Differentially Rescue Gut and Social Behavior Phenotypes in a Drosophila Autism-like Model

Natalia A. Peta Martinez, Melanie Reinoso Arnaldi, Tasha M. Santiago-Rodríguez, Imilce A. Rodriguez‐Fernandez

This study evaluates microbiota-based interventions in a Drosophila ASD model, showing that Lactobacillus plantarum restores gut microbes but not social behavior, while L. helveticus improves social behavior with minimal microbial impact.
